I was twenty-one years when I wrote this songI'm twenty-two now but I won't be for longTime hurries onAnd the leaves that are green turn to brownAnd they wither in the windAnd they crumble in your hand

Once my heart was filled with the love of a girlI held her close but she faded in the nightLike a poem I meant to writeAnd the leaves that are green turn to brownAnd they wither in the windAnd they crumble in your hand

I threw a pebble in a brookAnd watched the ripple run awayAnd they never made a soundAnd the leaves that are green turn to brownAnd they wither in the windAnd they crumble in your hand

Hello, hello, hello, helloGoodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbyeThat's all there isAnd the leaves that are green turn to brownAnd they wither in the windAnd they crumble in your hand

"Change. At the University of Wisconsin—Madison, it's everyone's major."

One thing the producers changed was their history of Frank Lloyd Wright's education. The ad shows lettering that reads, "Frank Lloyd Wright (Class of 1890)—Architect."

Wright attended classes at the UW on a part-time basis for two semesters. He studied civil engineering—there was no architecture major. Then he dropped out. He never graduated. He got an honorary doctorate in 1955.

"Thought this was funny. Koch Bros give money to climate change skeptics to study climate change. What did they find?

In the press release announcing the results, Muller said, "Our biggest surprise was that the new results agreed so closely with the warming values published previously by other teams in the US and the UK." In other words, climate scientists know what they're doing after all."

It's beautiful! I'm jealous of people who live in areas with gorgeous fall colors. I have to drive to the mountains for any color, and I sadly missed the peak weekends this year. Last year's were spectacular. I found a little color this year by driving south, and was pleasantly surprised to find snow! So there were evergreens and turning aspens and snow. Here are some pictures of it.
